    I never fail to be utterly charmed by the artwork on this poster.

    Does anyone know who the artist is and if she or he has other work, a blog, etc?

    Also a great chance to try out the new Tacos Morelos space where I hope they're doing well.

    @ Anon @ 12:09...She's my upstairs neighbor, works in advertising, and loved making that poster -- which she had to 'steal' time out of her insane schedule to do. I don't think she's got a blog. But, I'll ask and maybe she'll post an answer here.

    All of us on the block love that poster.

    Thank you, Nichola (and Olympia)! I adore the poster, it's so detailed and sweet, and captures the beauty of our old buildings perfectly. Now I want to find one in a window and steal it (but I won't) :)
